It is argued that logarithmic factors multiplying power law behavior are to be expected at or near non-mean field critical points of systems with short-range interactions described theoretically by any kind of n -> 0 limit, in which the…

The study deals with a minimal energy problem over noncompact classes of infinite dimensional vector measures in a locally compact space. The components are positive measures (charges) satisfying certain normalizing assumptions and…
We argue that the linear sigma model at small external momenta is an effective theory for the leading logarithms of chiral perturbation theory. Based on this assumption an attempt is made to sum these leading logarithms using the standard…

We consider a class of abstract quasilinear parabolic problems with lower--order terms exhibiting a prescribed singular structure. We prove well--posedness and Lipschitz continuity of associated semiflows. Moreover, we investigate global…
We study existence of random elements with partially specified distributions. The technique relies on the existence of a positive extension for linear functionals accompanied by additional conditions that ensure the regularity of the…
Many common loss functions such as mean-squared-error, cross-entropy, and reconstruction loss are unnecessarily rigid. Under a probabilistic interpretation, these common losses correspond to distributions with fixed shapes and scales. We…
We consider the map $T_{\alpha,\beta}(x):= \beta x + \alpha \mod 1$, which admits a unique probability measure of maximal entropy $\mu_{\alpha,\beta}$. For $x \in [0,1]$, we show that the orbit of $x$ is $\mu_{\alpha,\beta}$-normal for…
We study stable conditional measures for a certain equilibrium measure for hyperbolic endomorphisms, on basic sets with overlaps; we show that these conditional measures are geometric probabilities and measures of maximal stable dimension.…
A physical system is in local equilibrium if it cannot be distinguished from a global equilibrium by ``infinitesimally localized measurements''. This should be a natural characterization of local equilibrium, but the problem is to give a…
This paper discusses a general and useful stability principle which, roughly speaking, says that given a uniformly continuous function defined on an arbitrary metric space, if the function is bounded on the constraint set and we slightly…
Contextuality is a central property in comparative analysis of classical, quantum, and supercorrelated systems. We examine and compare two well-motivated approaches to contextuality. One approach ("contextuality-by-default") is based on the…
We show how to infer sharp partial regularity results for relaxed minimizers of degenerate, nonuniformly elliptic quasiconvex functionals, using tools from Nonlinear Potential Theory. In particular, in the setting of functionals with…
We consider the probability measure minimizing a free energy functional equal to the sum of a Coulomb interaction, a confinement potential and an entropy term, which arises in the statistical mechanics of Coulomb gases. In the limit where…
In this paper we prove quantitative regularity results for stationary and minimizing extrinsic biharmonic maps. As an application, we determine sharp, dimension independent $L^p$ bounds for $\nabla^k f$ that do not require a small energy…
